KARACHI: British tennis star Andy Murray claimed that he doesn't deserve a farewell like Roger Federer's, who retired after withdrawing from the Laver Cup.

Murray, who was a member of the European team that lost the Laver Cup for the first time, worried that he could have to retire in 2019 due to a hip issue.

The World team won the doubles match on Sunday, 13-8, in London despite Murray and Matteo Berrettini's loss.

After 25 years as a professional, Swiss legend Federer played his final match on Friday, and there were moving scenes as he said goodbye.

"I certainly won't and don't deserve to have a send-off like that. Roger did deserve that night and it was super special having all of those guys there watching on the side of the court," said Murray.

"I probably would announce when I'm going to play my last event, but when that is I don't know. I'm still playing competitive tennis and physically feeling good against top players," he added.
